Do atheists only seem negative because they have to explain why they don't believe in everything else?

If there weren't so many religions and religious beliefs out there, an atheists position wouldn't come across as so negative...

    I consider myself lucky and excited at the way my personal and professional life has turned out. And the future is full of hope. I analyse problems and take whatever action is needed to avoid difficulties to me and my family, and to help others.

    Most, if not all, of us have the resources within our brains to cope with problems, and hope is the behaviour that drives us to work towards a good result, though not of course a guarantee; we evolved that way, and that's where encouragement, confidence, happiness and hope come from. And this applies to the grieving process, as well as the mutual support and sympathy of relatives and friends. Some project these resources onto a mythical deity or spirit; but it's us that are doing the coping really, not any outside agency.

    Abiogenisis helps that existence could have occured by using organic approaches. look up the Miller-Urey test in case you prefer to be attentive to greater. Evolution explains the complexity that has developed. yet once you particularly needed to be attentive to which you will possibly by utilising now. Arguing from lack of expertise and irreducable complexity have been refuted maximum of situations in right here this week that that's glaring you're being lazy, willfully ignorant, or cheating. i ask your self why is it you do no longer ask technological know-how questions like this interior the technological know-how section? ought to that's which you do no longer likely desire a technological know-how answer? Are you afraid you will possibly get shredded there? Do us all a favour. positioned down the e book of Islamic fairy memories and study some thing that would not belong interior the fiction section. Mabe study some thing approximately biology. That way you ought to a minimum of attempt to come again up with some thing greater unique. Oh and please cite your supplies for numbers of conversions from athiesm to Islam. otherwise we are going to could assume you made that up. And mendacity for Allah continues to be mendacity. Does al taquia or kittman conceal that?

    Most likely because of what they've been through and because they love their sin.

    I know this because they think that science just fell out of nowhere and that there's nothing that can save them from that certain condition. I've showed the wannabe atheists that there actually is a creator and that what they've done or what they've went through can be extinguished by just simply showing them proof. It's easy. And the sad thing is it's like they think cause of their religion that they're smarter than you (to tell the truth most of the ones I've spoke too had problems passing 3rd grade and it haunts them till this very day!). It's all like a disease that just existed. They know what's real and some of them just can't admit it...

    Hope this makes sense cause to any other zombie would read this and deny it cause it's true. Heh.

    Honestly, I respect atheism as a valid "belief" or "non-belief" and I wouldn't think it by itself is negative, but the hate and animosity that I have seen in, I dare say, all atheists I have talked to, makes them seem very negative

    I believe in science that's one great positive in my life but when I see people clinging to bronze age myths I despair, but hey who cares as long as they are not bothering anyone else

  • you're on to something here. atheism is inherently negative, because it represents the opposing view, the negative of what the majority believes.

    the problem lies with semantics. in this case, 'negative' doesn't necessarily associate with 'bad'.

    That's true I guess. We naturally see contradictions to our opinions as negative and hostile.

    Atheists seem negative because they're, in general, annoying people.

    They expect us to justify our non belief, which is not our job

    It is THEIR job to justify THEIR belief.
